"The Puppet Saint?" Xiao Han was taken aback, then his eyes flashed with a sharp light.

"As expected, you deliberately released that so-called inheritance of the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect's saint, didn't you?"

Jiang Yu did not answer, but continued to pour himself wine, his meaning self-evident.

"It seems that the information I left in that legacy has been fully received by you..."

He raised the cup in his hand, "I wonder what the Ice Saint's answer is..."

"Is what you say true?" Xiao Han stared directly at Jiang Yu, as if trying to see right through him.

"I have no need to offend a peak Six-Star Dou Sheng, nor do I need to waste my time on making fun of others."

Jiang Yu's words were calm and unwavering, yet they carried an undeniable air of authority.

"Oh?" Xiao Han remained silent and lowered his head to ponder.

The source of all this is the legacy of the saints from that Space Trading Fair. The legacy itself wasn't fake; it just contained a few more pieces of information.

During the final stage of the inheritance, Xiao Han suddenly saw a video, which was clearly done intentionally by someone else, and the person in question was naturally the Puppet Saint in front of him.

He invited himself to come to Langtian City in the Southern Region a few years later to discuss exploring the Ancient Ten Thousand Puppets Sect Secret Treasure.

Xiao Han felt that the time was almost up, so he gave some instructions and quietly arrived in Langtian City while most people's attention was focused on the Creation Saint Relic.

I had wanted to see what this charlatan was really capable of, but now it seems I really should make time to go and see him.

The Ten Thousand Puppets Sect, a powerful sect renowned in ancient times, possessed a foundation that was incomparable to any current power, even without Dou Di expert.

As for the other party's secret treasure, even with Xiao Han's current perspective, he couldn't help but feel excited.

"When and where?" Xiao Han, who had been thinking for a long time, suddenly looked up and asked.

"Right now." Jiang Yu looked completely in control, clearly believing that no force or powerful individual could resist the allure of the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect Secret Treasure's secret treasure.

"Where?" Xiao Han's eyes lit up.

"I urge Your Ice Saint, to stay close to me," Jiang Yu said casually, without speaking directly.

"Sure!" Xiao Han didn't seem to care.

Immediately, a vortex appeared inside the private room, and after it closed, the two figures inside the room disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, the token hanging from Yi Huang's waist in the Langya Pavilion suddenly lit up, and a strange soul fluctuation emerged. Yi Huang's face immediately turned ashen, and a murderous aura soared to the sky, causing those outside to tremble with fear.

The source of the murderous aura gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it, running around everywhere again!"

But all they could do was rage in vain and wait for the reckoning to come.

Half a month later, in a continuous mountain range in the southwest of Central Plains.

A dark, murky vortex suddenly emerged from the void, and a man in green robes slowly stepped out from it, followed closely by a man in white. These were Jiang Yu and Xiao Han, who had come all the way from Central Plains in search of treasures.

Looking down at the scene below and confirming his location, Xiao Han frowned slightly and couldn't help but question, "Are you sure there's Ten Thousand Puppets Sect Secret Treasure in the southwest of Central Plains?"

Back then, he had already studied the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect mentioned in the inheritance quite thoroughly. From ancient times to the present, it has undergone tremendous changes, which can be described as a complete transformation.

Xiao Han speculated that the sect's ruins should be located in the Northern Region of Central Plains, in an area very close to the Northwest Continent.

The Ten Thousand Puppets Sect Secret Treasure could actually appear in a place almost opposite to it? That's a difference of hundreds of thousands of miles!

Jiang Yu smiled slightly and said confidently, "I already know about the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect Secret Treasure. It is indeed located here. Please, Ice Saint, do not be too impatient. Let me explain in detail."

Although he had already figured out along the way that this so-called Puppet Saint was just a weirdo who spoke very slowly, Xiao Han still found it hard to stand. If it weren't for the sake of the secret treasure, he probably would have used a Dou Techniques to slap him across the face!

Xiao Han suppressed his displeasure and said, "Please!"

"Please come with me, Ice Saint, let's talk as we travel." Jiang Yu moved and immediately appeared a thousand feet away, with Xiao Han following closely behind.

"I believe that Ice Saint has already learned about some of the deeds of the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect through various channels, so I will not go into details."

Jiang Yu said slowly.

Xiao Han remained silent, simply listening. He still had many questions about the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect, and he figured he would have to rely on this seemingly unreliable guy in front of him to resolve them.

Jiang Yu continued, "In ancient times, the Fierce Qi Continent experienced a dramatic change. Subsequently, the continent's civilization declined from its peak, and the number of Dou Di experts became increasingly rare, until they became a legend."

"Really..." Jiang Yu couldn't help but sigh.

"I'm sorry, it just came to mind." Jiang Yu apologized insincerely. "And the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect was destroyed precisely when the continent was undergoing a period of great upheaval."

Xiao Han understood. The Ten Thousand Puppets Sect must have been caught in the crossfire during the invasion of the Evil Clan. Under the circumstances at that time, many Dou Di forces were destroyed, let alone a sect like the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect that did not even have Dou Di.

At this moment, Jiang Yu's voice suddenly changed, his tone rising, "Although the demise of the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect was extremely swift, according to my extensive reading of historical records, I have finally discovered that the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect had a premonition of impending doom and prepared contingency plans in advance."

"We have transferred a large amount of precious treasures and sect heritage, hoping that the descendants of the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect can unearth them and make the sect flourish again."

His tone shifted abruptly, and he adopted a rather sorrowful expression. "It's a pity that the entire Ten Thousand Puppets Sect perished in that catastrophe."

"Only two of the high-ranking saints left behind their legacy on their deathbeds, informing them of this matter and hoping that someone would inherit it so that their lineage could continue."

Jiang Yu chuckled and said, "Perfect timing. I obtained that Inheritance Ruins site by chance, and thus learned the location of the secret treasure."

After saying that, she turned her gaze to Xiao Han, her eyes clearly saying, "You're really lucky!"

Xiao Han didn't react to this, but instead pressed on, "Tell me, what is that Ten Thousand Puppets Sect Secret Treasure assessment, or is there any mystery behind it?"

Jiang Yu wasn't embarrassed when Xiao Han pointed it out. Anyone with eyes could see that, according to what the former said, he could have kept the secret treasure for himself, so why did he auction it off? It could only be that there was a problem in the secret treasure that he couldn't solve on his own.

Without changing his expression, he said, "That secret treasure requires two people who have mastered the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect's inheritance to take the test simultaneously, and they must both pass before it can be opened."

He then looked at Xiao Han and said with a hint of relief, "Fortunately, you have already mastered the inheritance, so all my efforts have not been in vain."

"Hehe~" Xiao Han chuckled nonchalantly. "So, how are the secret treasures divided?"

Jiang Yu said with absolute certainty, "Naturally, it will be split fifty-fifty."

He added meaningfully, "Otherwise, I fear I would also lose everything, and even my life."

Xiao Han smiled gently and said, "You're overthinking it."

"Since you are so generous, I will gladly accept your offer."

"It's a pleasure working with you!"

"It's a pleasure working with you!"

The two exchanged a smile, and the two, each with their own ulterior motives, reached an agreement.

Suddenly, Jiang Yu's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the mountain wall in front of him, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.

"We've finally arrived."

Immediately under Xiao Han's probing gaze, he formed a series of hand seals, and then his Dou Qi spirit suddenly erupted, shooting straight towards the mountain wall with a Dou Qi Stream tens of feet long.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, a deep vortex, only a few feet in diameter, appeared before Xiao Han.
